I too am in the market for a 2010/2011 E350. Will start serious looking and purchase next spring. I did come across a 2010 E3504M with 48k miles and the asking price was $35,000. Now since the new year is here and more 2012's are conning out. Planned on spending alot more but my God when I see one at $35,000 I bet I can get one even cheaper by spring? Seems pretty logical to me.

Damn... this post depresses me and the resale value of my 2010 E350. I put down around $15K and paid down around $10K since I bought it Nov 2009 and I'm only like $3-5K away from being upside down!! Oh well I still love driving it everyday I get in it, theres nothing like hitting traffic and just turning on the distronic and relaxing to my HK sound system while everyone else stresses out.

Man MN must just be a horrible market for used Benz.....was just out at the dealer wandering the lot and found another great looking '10 E350, from what i could see it looked like P1, pano roof, AMG wheels, no window sticker telling me much else, but they want $45k for it......where the $35k ones?! lol

We have the memories of having these sexy babies since they first hit the roads though, so that's gotta count for something.
BTW guys, blame the erratic resale on MBUSA's insane price slashing. Not easy to maintain a proper and consistent resale value when these guys are giving E-Classes away for 20% off MSRP like it's nothing. It eradicated dignity to the cars therefore eradicating said "dignity" from the resale value.
As the years go on, the deprecation slows down, it's always worst at the beginning. I also see lots of 2010 E350's being sold at Dealers well within the $40's, easily.

Pardon me. They seem to lower it to $32,995

I would not buy from them. I know this dealership. Those guys play games with speedometer. Also, advertised price only if you finance with them. I would check interest rate they offer.

Every Dealers says "Leather". Everybody assume MB-Tex is Leather, nor do they even know what MB-Tex is, so you'll usually see "Leather" describing the seating on everything from a C300 up on Used Ads.

New York metro area cars also have the potential to be a bit more beat up than the average car due to the roads. It is generally hard to find out what kind of life the vehicle lived but it might have been a tough one!! Did it live and drive around Brooklyn or live its life in Westchester? And if it lived in Westchester, where did it drive day in and day out? Hard to know. Regards. Ned.

That car does look worn out already. The steering wheel looks disgusting with all that shine. Say goodbye to the sanctity of the Nappa.

I wasn't suggesting that you absolutely can't buy a NYC metro area used car. Just be as careful as possible. Try to find a car that was traded in to the dealer out on Long Island or in Westchester that was driven locally with low mileage. Regards. Ned.

I just picked up a used 2010 CPO with 22k miles (AMG sport package, P1 and wheel package). I paid a few cups of coffee under $40k for it (plus tax etc). And I had to kick, scream and fight to get that price too. Sticker on it was nearly $46k (which was way high imo). Most dealers were offering similar cars for $43k but would only come off that price by about $1k.
I went to a lot of dealers and looked at a lot of cars and the best price I was getting was around $42k if the mileage was under 30k. If the car had 40k miles I was getting them down to around $38k. I thought I should have been able to do better but there is just not enough of the 2010s on the lots to bargain yet.

Yea my plan is to get them down to around 40, plus see what i can get as returning customer, few bonuses they have running. Goal is to get my C300 traded, and refinance whats outstanding to roll in with the difference for the E, extend it out a bit maybe, and hopefully end up with roughly the same payments, just tacking on a extra year or so...
